ENZYME entry: EC 3.4.21.110
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| C5a peptidase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| SCP. |
| Streptococcal C5a peptidase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| The primary cleavage site is at 67-His-|-Lys-68 in human C5a with a minor secondary cleavage site at 58-Ala-|-Ser-59 |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Surface-associated subtilisin-like serine peptidase with very
specific substrate specificity.
- Virulent strains of streptococci, including Streptococcus pyogenes,
can evade human detection and phagocytosis by destroying the
complement chemotaxin C5a.
- Cleavage of human C5a by this enzyme reduces the ability of C5a to
bind receptors on the surface of polymorphonuclear neutrophil
leukocytes (PMNLs) and thereby abolishes its chemotactic properties.
- Belongs to peptidase family S8A.
